It could kill you. " he said. Ellen was very a so she decided to do as the doctor said. The next day Ellen Parker went into a meat shop. "I'd like ten pounds of meat, please. "she said. "Certainly, madam. " the boss said and went to get a large piece of meat.
After telling Mrs Parker about the price, the boss asked,"Shall I cut it into smaller p for you?"
"Oh, I don't want to buy the meat. " Mrs. Parker said. The boss was very a and shouted, "If you don't want to buy it, why did you ask me to get it for you?"
